The Company, Tiger Midco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), and Tiger Merger Sub Co., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Purchaser”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”) dated as of November 12, 2019, as amended on November 27, 2019 by Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger. The Agreement contemplated that Purchaser would be merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”) and that the Company would survive the Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. The Merger became effective on June 30, 2020 (the “Effective Date”) as a result of filing a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the Articles of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida.
As a result of the Merger, the Company has terminated all offerings of its securities pursuant to its existing registration statements, including the Registration Statement. In accordance with the Company’s undertaking in Part II, Item 17(a)(3) of the Registration Statement, the Company hereby removes from registration any securities registered under the Registration Statement that remained unsold as at the termination of the offering.
